How 'bout Them Apples?

Tomorrow morning we pack the car with the laptops, the gadgets, gizmos, snacks, dvd's, cd's, Ipods, cell phones, books, magazines, notebooks, pens, markers, maps, confirmation sheets, gas cards, credit cards, luggage, overnight bags and, if there's room, Harry and me.  

After one overnight stay we will find ourselves once again in the midst of New York City.  Two hillbillies, in desperate need of a vacation, will then attempt to eat ourselves into food-related comas by midnight every night after going on tours, seeing naked people on Broadway, and basically trying to soak up enough culture to last us for the rest of the year.   

And I could really use a vacation.  My life is beyond hectic at the moment and I'm never without the high-pitched "Squuueeeeee!" of the gears of my mind working overtime to attempt to put things in perspective.   And now with this AOL thing.  Grr.  Anyhoo.  I plan on having a good time and coming back with some souveniers, stories, new accessories and at least five extra pounds 'round my ever-expanding bottom.

Wish me luck, send me happy thoughts and I hope everyone has fun this week! I know I will be!

Have a GREAT time! I love NYC! It is one of my favorite cities in the world! I am sure you have your trip planned, but if you have time, my favorite little museum, if you haven't already been there, is the Fricke. It is on Museum row on the upper East side and does not take that long to tour as it was a private collection in a mansion. It has one of the most amazing collections of art that I have ever seen in one small area. There are paintings I studied in England as well as here in SF. I just get so excited when people go to NYC....and a little envious. Don't forget TKTS for your theater tickets! I can't wait to hear all about your trip!
